10. The final conformational shape of proteins and interactions with their environment and other nearby molecules depends on the chemical properties of amino acids along the primary polypeptide chain. In this case, the final quaternary structure can be ascertained by examining the orientation of the protein with the phospholipid membrane. Predict the position of amino acids of the protein by clicking on the protein depicted in the box at left that would most likely be found in the cell membrane example at right. =Leucine =Lysine =Serine G d) Lo

Which of the following (could be more than one) would not be a rational explanation for why the three-dimensional structure of a protein is driven and stabilized largely by noncovalent rather than covalent bonds?a) Proteins may be degraded for energy, and if their three-dimensional structures were heldtogether by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult to accomplishb) Proteins will need to be unfolded to cross biological membrane, and if their three-dimensionalstructures were held together by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult toaccomplish.c) Protein function (transport, enzyme catalysis, etc...) may require flexibility in the three-dimensional structure to allow for conformational change, and if protein three-dimensionalstructure were held together by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult toaccomplish.d) All of the answer choices are rational explanations for why the three-dimensional structure of protein is driven and stabilized largely…
Which of the following statements are correct about protein structure (select all that apply)? A. Post-translational modifications such as glycosylation or phosphorylation may alter the structure of a protein B. Only amino acids with a net charge may interact with other amino acids C. The 3D structure of a protein is determined primarily by the protein backbone/main chain conformation while the amino acid sidechains play only a minor role. D. Hydrophobic interactions play a key role in protein folding E. Amino acid sidechains contribute to 3D structure through their ability to form hydrogen bonds with other amino acids
Proteins involved in transport of molecules or ions into orout of cells are found in the membranes of all cells. They areclassified as transmembrane proteins because some regionsare embedded within the lipid bilayer, whereas other regionsprotrude into the cytoplasm or outside the cell. Review theclassification of amino acids based on the properties of theirR groups. What type of amino acids would you expect tofind in the regions of the proteins embedded within themembrane? What type of amino acids would you expect tofind on the surface of the regions in the cytoplasm or thatprotrude outside the cell?
Protein folding is critical for function because the properties of a protein arise from its overall shape and the distribution within that shape of the various amino acid side-chains. Which of the following statements about protein three-dimensional structure are correct? 1) the folding pattern of a protein is ultimately determined by its amino acid sequence. 2) proteins tend to fold in such a way that the hydrophobic amino acids are buried in the interior, while hydrophilic amino acids are exposed at the surface. 3) the chemical interactions within a protein molecule that support its overall folded structure are mostly covalent C-C (carbon to carbon) bonds between amino acid side-chains. 4) the overall folding pattern/shape of a protein molecule is termed its primary structure. 5) during evolution, the three-dimensional structure of a protein is often more strongly conserved than its amino acid sequence. More than one answer might be right
